Personal:

I am a friendly, reliable and hardworking person, I work well within a group environment as well as on my own.
I always take care with my work and finish within deadlines while striving to make it the best it can be.
I respond well to constructive criticisms and don't mind changing my work to suit a client.
My troubleshooting and problem solving skills are very good as I like to think outside the box.

During 2005 I was a part time tutor at Natcoll Design Technology. I was teaching a variety of multimedia subjects to groups of students,
this boosted my problem solving skills and gave me experience instructing groups of people.
As a student during the 3d Animation course I was looked to as a leader and someone who could always help solve a problem.


3d Modelling:

I highly enjoy turning concepts into full 3d models and I am always working to improve myself in this field.
While working on the 3d Animation Diplomas group project, I had the opportunity to design and build a few vehicles.
We were working with real clients from Metia Interactive and Film Factory NZ, so we worked with them to create the right design for the project. This also involved a lot of client changes which I handled easily under the deadlines.
As an end of year project during the Multimedia course I created, from concept to model, two fighter space craft.
For another project during the Animation course, I created environments and characters from a graphic novel and brought them to life in 3d.


3d Animation:

I also enjoy animating, while working on the Animation course group project I animated many scenes with 3+ characters involved.
The clients for the project also needed changes to be made and I completed them with ease.
The scenes I worked on included:
fighting between 2 characters, flying vehicles, interaction between 3 characters and characters welding weapons.
I can also rig basic biped characters and hard body vehicles.
I am still learning animation and rigging however, but I am always working to improve myself.

I am a talented artist and competent in Concept Art, Computer Graphics, Painting and Sketching.
I enjoy designing and creating fictional vehicles, characters and environments.
